About my charity : Save the Children Save the Children

We're working flat out to get every child their rights and we're determined to make further, faster changes. How many? How fast? It's up to you.

My personal message:

I did it !! 
I jumped out of a plane at 12,000ft - What a buzz!!  Anyone want to sponsor me to do it again just let me know!
I've had the time of my life........ in India!
I survived the 1st Cyclone to hit Calcutta in 27 years, saw some amazing sights including the Taj Mahal, made some great friends and made it up and down a mountain - a truly memorable experience and one I would repeat without hesitation. Amazing.
I am now about to jump out of a plane from 10,000ft thankfully, or should I say hopefully, with a parachute!!  Please sponsor me - any additional money I raise will be added to the Global Challenge pot and will continue our good work with the schools in Jammu and Kashmir.   
After closely following the trek last year and hearing all the amazing stories from those who took part, I've been lucky enough to be chosen to join the next Reckitt Benckiser Global Challenge.
The trek will be from the 29 May - 9 June 2009, in the Ladakh region of the Himalayas in Northern India, at times trekking at high altitude, concluding with us having the opporutunity to see first hand some of Save the Children's work in the Ladakh region.
Not only is this going to hopefully raise lots & lots of money to make a difference to so many childrens lives, it will also be a very personal challenge and a truly once in a lifetime experience.  I've never even camped before !!!
To boost my fundraising I also (somehow!) agreed to jump out of a plane & do a tandem skydive from 10,000ft so please, please sponsor me as little, or as MUCH (!) as you can, every £10 saves a childs life.
    
Thank you for your generosity and wish me luck with the challenge !!
